Octopus Energy‘s electric vehicle (EV) charging platform, Octopus Electroverse, has become Europe’s largest for consumers, with nearly 850,000 connected chargers. The platform’s success stems from its ‘one card, one app’ model, simplifying the charging process for EV users.
Initially disrupting the UK market, Octopus Electroverse expanded across Europe last year. The platform is now integrated with 950 charge point brands, including prominent names such as InstaVolt, IONITY, and TotalEnergies. Available in 40 countries and 20 languages, it offers access to approximately 80% of European public chargers.

The platform’s customer base has surged, nearly tripling (+180%) over the past 12 months, driven by its user-friendly features, including a map, route planner, and in-car support via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. UK customers and those in Europe can also consolidate their public charging costs with their monthly energy bill if they are Octopus Energy customers.
This growth comes as EV registrations in Europe continue to rise, with electric vehicles making up over 20% of new car registrations in 2023, according to the IEA Global EV Outlook.

Zoisa North-Bond of Octopus Electroverse, said: “We created Electroverse with a clear mission: to make charging electric cars on-the-go as easy as possible. One card and one app – that’s all drivers need to access nearly 850,000 chargers.
“Our customers love the slick experience and features we’ve rolled out over the years – but we won’t stop here. We’re nearing the 1 million mark and have become the largest consumer electric car charging platform in Europe – and we’re geared up to rapidly accelerate this worldwide.”
